it sounds like fred thompson will hire him which says a lot about his ethics from the start.

Best news I've heard all week! This also removes some of the taint from Mark Pryor. This is also justice for Jane Duke who traditionally should have taken Cummins place when he resigned...er...uh...was booted out the door.

Funny that Griffin was rushed into office the same day Duke was in labor. I think there's a connection there and to the back-dating of Griffin's appointment. It's one giant stinking bowl of rotted fish.

May Ms Duke remember each day she is on the job how slimy her superiors are and the kind of rewards to expect from them in the future.

For the sake of justice what this Rovemonkey did should be investigated to the nth degree. Then, if possible, any and all possible charges filed against him.

Have Demos lost all their courage and sense of rage?

What is Jane Duke's background? She must be fairly young if she is a new mother.

Ole Timmy must have got wind of that Arkansas Times editorial!

ARK. BLOG: Yes! That did it. My early post of our editorial this week made him realize that resistance was futile.

Ding dong, the wicked witch is Freds..

Boo Yaaaa

I hope someone monitored all of Tim the cagey vote Grifters activity very closely.... what computer passwords does he have? what files etc..?

Makes me cringe to think of what he could have pulled off with the keys to OUR office,

Was anyone hired or fired by Tim? Why and do they need a special review? All cases this man touched certainly do!!

BTW, Great work Max...

I received a call from Polling Center last night. Some of the questions dealt with my preference for US Senator - Pryor or Huckabee. Could Huckabee have serious thoughts about running for the Senate? Did anyone else get the call?

Ding dong, the wicked witch is Freds..'

That is by far the funniest thing I've read on a blog in a long time !

If Fred and Huckabee square off they can debate who has the most corrupt staff, Mike Huckabee's pay day lender as campaign mgr or Thompson's voter suppressor, Timothy.

I'm so glad this p.o.s. is resigning, but I hope they drag him before any and every panel/court/tribunal/inquisition there is, then drag him before some more.

Amen, Hugh Mann.

Although I think his leaving is a wonderful think. It isn't a victory. It's a "gimme"

Mark Pryor didn't help get rid of him. And the Democratic Party didn't get rid of him. He only left because the Republicans wanted him to go elsewhere.

And to think I almost went to bed without getting this sweet news...and after the Dems turncoat war vote I needed something righteous to hang on to (except for counting the ways I'm done with em). But I don't get it...there's no way Griffin left even a week early 'cause it was inevitable or the right thing to do. It must be camoflauge for something bigger/stinkier...so I'll just savor the moment!

Ahhh...the excellent effort of The Arkansas Times has paid off!

Good work...

That Fred Thompson would even consider hiring a Rove snake is very telling of what kind of critter he is. Are there no decent people in politics today?

"And the Democratic Party didn't get rid of him. He only left because the Republicans wanted him to go elsewhere."

Wrong. The Republicans wanted him there in the first place because they wanted him there. The only thing that changed their minds (and therefore his) was the Democratic (plus a few Republicanists') uprising--which all pretty much got legs in the first place right here.

Ready, set, GO!

Adios Tim, here's your hat now where's your hurry?

Don't let the door hit you in that fat ass of yours.

Tim will continue to have a dark cloud over his head until the allegations of voter "caging" in the last two presidential elections is resolved. He has had a rough go and needs to be cleared of these vicious rumors. This smart young man should not have to go through life with everyone questioning his dealings while employed by the RNC and Rove. Just like the fired US attorneys, he deserves to got his reputation back. Call Pryor and Lincoln and insist this be investigated immediately.

YES, let's investigate EXACTLY what was done with those caging lists. Let's get the REAL story and make sure that if there was laws broken that people are prosecuted for it, no matter WHO it is.

(Let's hope Rove is implicated and prosecuted.)

This is so cool: after living here for ten years, I finally find a local blog that shows that some of us are interested in things that happen beyond the end of our driveways...so help me out here---whatever happened to Carolyn Staley? Was she not responsible for a huge mess involving voter registration?
And did she resign or was she fired? I can't believe I can't remember, so I need some FEEDBACK please.
Thanks!

ARK. BLOG: She did not seek re-election. One of her deputies was beaten in the election by Pat O'Brien, who has cleaned up the voter records.

Griffin resigned because Greg Palast,author of Armed Madhouse, handed Chairman Conyers of the Congressional commitee Karl Rove's "missing" emails yesterday. Palast recieved them by accident when the emails were sent to rnc.com instead of .org. .com is a satire site. The commitee investigating election fraud, same that interviewed Monica Goodling, is outraged by their content, planning out the "caging lists" that kept at least 100,000 veterans and minorities from voting in 2000 and 2004 Presidential elections. The minute Griffin heard that the emails were being handed over, he ran like a scared rabbit. A cooked one. Rove seems cooked by this too as long as people keep talking about it. Go to Airamerica.com and check out Randi Rhodes site for more details.

Right, and thank you Ark. Blog and Lance M.
I've been a fan of Mr. Palast's for a few years now.
It was my sister, back in L.A. (where I'm from) who alerted me to what just happened with Griffin.
I wonder how Bud Cummins is feeling about all this...

many thanks to the AT

damn good work

all i can say now is...

NEXT !

To Whom It May Concern:
Ladies and Gentlemen: concerned citizens, and constituents!
The Arkansas state police, Crimes Against Children's Division of the (ASP), DHHS, Lonoke County Sheriffs Office, Prosecutors Office, Judges, Cabot Police Department and basically all the officers employed by these agencies are allowing my babies to be beet and sexually abused!

I have police reports that completely contradict what is said in the CHRIS reports from DHS, the investigators followed no procedure since January of 2005, and in these reports they told so many lies that can easily be scene. Their response time was so far off from the time allowed to them to make contact with the victim, as well as the time they are allowed to complete the investigation.
08/08/07 Jasmine Lee Turnage (4 years old) told that Cody Boyer (14) opened the bathroom door with a knife, came in and tickled her butt with his, put it in her and hurt her at the Wade Knox Advocacy in Lonoke County, no sexual exam was requested, Cabot City Police were supposed to conduct an investigation according to Lonoke County prosecutor Robert Curly. Larry Thompson of the CPD told me his boss told him to let the ASP handle the investigation, does this mean no law enforcement agency conducted one? Officer Thompson said he wasn't doing a police report, isn't it SOP to do a report any time there is situation with a civilian? Because of my daughter's lack of knowledge of days and how to explain them to the interrogator during this interview they said she wasn't creditable. Jasmine is 4 years old I have a feeling if we view this tape we would see that they were leading my daughter in part of the interview, I do know if she told them this past Friday she was talking about the Friday prior to the one that just past! I've explained that the one that just went by is the last day in question, prior to the one that just went by is in the past! She said this past Friday and they assumed she meant last Friday. I've been refused or not allowed to view any of the tapes they've made! Jasmine also told them she told her mother this happened, I saw no where that they asked the mother about this. I brought it up to Cindy (MOM) she said Cody told her Jasmine opened the door with a knife and came in the bathroom with him. Could this be construed as a confession that something happened in the bathroom?

I have documented proof that the Arkansas State Police, DHHS, CACD, are lying in DHS reports and allowing my baby's to be beet and sexually abused As GOD is MY Witness!! Sincerely, James A Turnage Sr. justice4jasmine@yahoo.com
On 01/03/06 there were physical findings of sexual abuse concerning my 34 month old daughter, according to the State Task Force Report these findings are rare! It pretty much destroys me inside to know that my baby is being raped and this state is allowing it to hide their negligence, the CHRIS report from DHHS, and CACD (ASP), from 01/03/06 deny the fact that these medical records from Arkansas Children's Hospital: I do have a copy of these records, This is an intentional lie by whom ever is in direct control of the conspiracy to cover the state police's negligence in the beginning of these investigations.
